Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-02-24 08:14:16] kester at iskra dot net Certainly still happening on some installs 4.3.4. Experiencing same on a Linux Fedora Box, with Fedora Packaged PHP 4.3.4 and Apache/2.0.48 (Fedora) BUT this is when running MediaWiki http://sourceforge.net/projects/wikipedia/ ... but NOT when running drupal http://www.drupal.org/ or my home built cms. I have made the settings used for sesssion management for the drupal v.domain and the mediawiki v domain the same. I have tried changing directories to store the session files. For notes:- http://www.yorkunity.org.uk/wiki/York_Unity:Bug_reports (if you get the error - hit refresh a few times :-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-02-24 05:16:45] [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the ext/session/mod_files.c inside the function PS_OPEN_FUNC(files) replace the next content: ------------------------------------------- if ((p = strchr(save_path, ';'))) { errno = 0; data->dirdepth = (size_t) strtol(save_path, NULL, 10); if (errno == ERANGE) { efree(data); PS_SET_MOD_DATA(0); return FAILURE; } save_path = p + 1; } ------------------------------------------- by this one: ------------------------------------------- if ((p = strrchr(save_path, ';'))) { data->dirdepth = (size_t)atol(save_path); save_path = p + 1; } ------------------------------------------- Compile again and try your scripts. The problem exists from old php versions, but in 4.3.4 was added the errno control to generate an error. Now the functionality is the correct one and never produce abnormal errors!

My /tmp is on a separate partition, and has plenty of space... a restart (even a graceful one) seems to fix the problem. As a temp fix, I heard someone say that the sites they had using custom session storage handlers did NOT exhibit the problem, so I think I may try an auto-prepend file containing such an override on a server-wide basis. Any comment on this idea? Please copy my email. Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-02-18 11:18:59] bigrob at cox-internet dot com I'm having the same problems. FreeBSD 4.8, php 4.3.4. THIS IS GETTING VERY annoying. It quit doing it for a month, then almost to the exact day it just started up again this morning at 1AM and hasn't stoppd. Apache 2.0.47 as well. Restarting apache seems to do the trick for about a minute, then it starts popping up again. I've already had 20 customers call this morning saying they cannot place orders and they give me the error. I've check my apache access logs as well as the php log. I get this error several times: [18-Feb-2004 10:15:39] PHP Warning: Unknown(): A session is active. You cannot change the session module's ini settings at this time. in Unknown on line 0 Almost always following it is this srror: [18-Feb-2004 10:15:51] PHP Fatal error: session_start(): Failed to initialize storage module. in /mydir/myfile.php3 on line 2 All that is in myfile.php3 is session_start(); These errors started happening after moving to a new sever. NO PROBLEMS in the past, was using Apache 1.3.8 I believe and PHP 4.3.0. PHP People, WHAT ARE CAUSING THESE ERRORS???? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
